Why watch this film?
Written and directed by Alan Yang (co-creator of the acclaimed series 'Master of None', for which he won an Emmy), 'Tigertail' is a drama that spans decades and generations, contrasting the pursuit of supposed happiness amidst the economic issues of a distant nation, with the sacrifice of joy we find in home, family and love to achieve professional and financial goals. The lead role of the great Tzi Ma (seen in films such as 'Rush Hour' and 'Arrival') is crucial in conveying the inner conflict of his cold and bitter protagonist, bringing an even more interesting melancholic redemption.

Kidnapped
In Kidnapped (Rapito), Italian filmmaker Marco Bellocchio delves into one of the murkiest and most controversial episodes in the history of the Catholic Church, the "Mortara case". In 1851, when Jewish boy Edgardo Mortara becomes gravely ill, his Catholic nanny decides to baptize him in an emergency. However, papal law dictates that all Catholics must be raised as such, so the cardinal orders the boy to be taken and handed over to the church, against his parents' wishes, who decide to fight for him. The film recounts a controversial case that captured the attention of the rest of Europe and America, and skillfully portrays the clash of interests between the waning power of the church, Mortara's parents, and public opinion, with irreversible consequences for all involved.
